Dr. Brian Horne is a Psychiatry Resident whose approach to care is built on a strong foundation of both empathy and diverse life experience. He champions the belief that a person’s mental health is just as critical as their physical health for achieving optimal daily function and well-being.

Hailing from a small town in upstate New York, Dr. Horne's early life was rich with creative pursuits, including competitive running, playing the trombone, singing, and acting in local theatre. These interests led him to earn a Bachelor's degree in Theatre Arts from the State University of New York at Fredonia in 2005.

A significant turning point in his journey was the seven years he spent dedicated to supporting adults with developmental disabilities. This valuable work fostered a deep understanding of human needs and functioning, inspiring him to pursue medicine and specialize in psychiatry. He went on to earn his MD from the Trinity School of Medicine in 2023 and is currently completing his third year of residency at EIRMC.

When he isn't focused on his residency, Dr. Horne continues to embrace his creative side through professional singing, in addition to enjoying working out, reading, and exploring new places through travel.
